The point is the beat down we gave you last year didn't help us in the rankings. And while we expect to win a game like that, a loss would hurt more than any gain we would have. And there is a better chance of injury.

As for GT, I anticipate a much better game from them than I do Auburn. After the game last year, if Auburn is worse this year it could get more embarrassing. They lost that horseshoe that had up their butts (I think Ole Miss found it)

They have to rest up for their biggest game of the year and to stay healthy in the "juggernaut" that is the SEC East

UGA is always so overranked due to SEC bias, you can only go up so far. Clemson was by far the best team UGA beat last year, and it wasn't a beatdown, tight ball game until a few big runs by UGA in the 4th, due to several Clemson defensive stars being suspended and Clemson breaking in two new QBs on the road first game of season.

UGA played Lousville in the Belk bowl last year, Clemson was in a better bowl against Oklahoma, and that was a beatdown. lol I don't know where you get your sense of superiority from when UGA lost to a 1-D bad Florida team last year

You don't want to play Clemson because you want some cupcakes. Just not true that beating a highly ranked Clemson team won't help your ranking.

Suck a dick, that wasn't in the timeline you chose to use. And Clemson (with a significantly better QB) just beat that same 0-3 Louisville team by a smaller margin than Auburn did. GTFO with your bull shite. All I've ever seen you do on this board is start pissing matches about Clemson. This topic is about UGA's scheduling choices for this weekend, not Clemson's shitty program.


The UGA person brought up Clemson specifically. You seem quite emotional. Yes, I talk about Clemson when it is brought up by people on here given I went to Clemson.

Clemson played a lot better against Louisville than Auburn. You can look at the stats. Plus it was on the road. That was without our no. 1 NFL destined WR as well.

Not sure Auburn in much position to dump on Clemson given you appear headed to your 2nd losing season in 5 years. Clemson been a lot more consistent the past 5 years.

Don't be embarrassed and don't feel guilty. Southern will get an nice little paycheck for their beat down. Think of it along the lines of Obama's dream of "redistribution of wealth".

the theory of SEC bias is SEC teams are overranked in preseason poll and they don't move down much when they lose to other SEC teams because it is assumed SEC is the best. Keep in mind SEC programs play the least OOC games of any conference, so we rarely learn in regular season how good the SEC is compared to other conferences. Then note ESPN is heavily invested in the SEC.

I'm not saying UGA was a bad team but I think if your team loses to a 1-d Florida team that struggles to score, you probably aren't no. 9 in country.

My point is Clemson looked better against UGA than Mizzou, who did not score a point at home if my memory serves, and Mizzou has won the east twice in recent years. Clemson looked better on the road against UGA than UGA looked against Florida at neutral site. So why the superiority? UGA lost to Clemson 2 years ago and a fan cried on the radio in Altanta.

Dude, I'm not trying to shite on Clemson so much as defend Auburn here since you came out of nowhere talking trash with incorrect stats. You act like Auburn and the SEC are bad because we don't play in the ACC and Clemson is some elite monster.

Yall have done well in the ACC recently and that's fine - Auburn has a Heisman winner, 22 SEC championships, a natty appearance and a National Championship in the last 5 years. So we've had some meltdowns and may have another on our hands this year, but I would much rather be an Auburn fan in our worst season than a Clemson fan reaching for some kind of acceptance on an SEC board just because you're consistent in the ACC.

The SEC plays the same number of OOC games as ACC and Big 10 teams.

Heisman winner is irrelevant. Clemson has had several Heisman contenders, and winners of various other awards. Tajh Boyd, Sammy Watkins, Nuk Hopkins, Andre Ellington, CJ Spiller, James Davis, Woody Danztler, etc all pretty solid players I think. lol

You've had two losing season in the past 5 years, and got lucky to get to that title game. So don't run down Clemson. I'd rather rather lose 2 games every season then have losing seasons sandwich b/t national titles and national title game seasons.

I'd rather be a Clemson fan because I went to Clemson. Has nothing to do with how many games the football team wins.

I'm not looking for acceptance. lol I'm just exposing the fact Auburn isn't that consistent of a program and no reason to be knocking ACC when you are 7-7 against the ACC since 1989.

Tight game until a few big runs (touchdowns)

Hilarious. All games are close until one team scores several more touchdowns. You sound foolish and I am done with you. Living through UFs win. Pitiful.

I was making a point about starters on our no. 1 defense being suspended for that game, and it became a depth issue in the 4th.

Seems obvious.

UGA lost to Vandy couple of years ago.

And Clemson 2 years ago. Almost like that didn't happen now. Why did you single out Clemson to dump on? I could understand your point if you were talking about Wake, but I think beating Clemson right now is a good thing to have on your resume for a playoff spot. :)

2 years ago, SC finished no. 4 in last poll of season, and their best wins were over UGA at home, Clemson at home, and Central Florida (who got luck to beat a bad Temple program).

So obviously beating Clemson helped them a bit. lol

Keep in mind Clemson destroyed SC on both sides of the ball in our game last year, the same SC that dominated UGA in Columbia.

Please explain. Is that not a measure of success and national recognition for the program?

To clarify I'm an Auburn fan because I got a degree from Auburn. I'm not hating on the school, I never belittle anyone's choice of education. However I stand by my thinking that Clemson's football program would not have the same success they've had recently with a week-to-week SEC schedule.

my comments aren't about dumping on UGA. I'm pointing out it is dumb to say beating a ranked Clemson team, or any ranked team, doesn't help any. Baylor was left out of the playoffs last year b/c they played a weak OOC schedule.
